We Know Puyallup Homes — We've Been Remodeling Them for 15 Years

Puyallup — pronounced "pew-AL-up" — is the heart of the Puyallup Valley in Pierce County, best known as the home of the Washington State Fair (the largest single attraction in the state). The city's charming downtown along Meridian Street and Pioneer Avenue features historic brick buildings surrounded by residential neighborhoods with homes dating from the early 1900s through the 1960s. The South Hill neighborhood, Puyallup's largest residential area climbing the glacial ridge south of the valley floor, was developed primarily from the 1980s through the 2000s and contains thousands of builder-grade homes where kitchen and bathroom remodels are in high demand. The older neighborhoods near Pioneer Park and along 5th Street SW feature smaller Craftsman-era homes with original wood floors, built-in buffets, and compact bathrooms that benefit from thoughtful renovation. The Shaw Road and Canyon Road corridors on the east side have seen newer construction. Puyallup's proximity to Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) means a significant military population that creates steady demand for home improvements. With a median home value around $475,000, Puyallup's affordability combined with its small-town charm and fair-season energy make it a compelling market for homeowners investing in kitchen and bathroom upgrades.

We know Puyallup well — from the early 1900s craftsman homes to the 1950s-1960s ranch, we've worked on them all. With homes in Puyallup averaging $475,000, homeowners here typically invest 10-15% of their home's value in a kitchen remodel — which means most projects fall between $48,000 and $71,000. Bathroom remodels typically run about half that range.

Our crews have worked in neighborhoods across Puyallup — from South Hill, Downtown Puyallup, West Puyallup to North Puyallup, Shaw Road Area, Canyon Road Corridor and everywhere in between. We understand the quirks of 35-year-old homes in this area: the plumbing situations, the electrical panels, the load-bearing walls. That local knowledge saves you time, money, and surprises during your remodel.
